“Hacke” is quite universal used for all hand tools that help loosen the soil; very general term. “Queraxt“ is a term I loosely remember from 19th century narratives, but it’s very uncommon in today’s gardening practice.

Yeah, would have problems to name all the tools properly in German

Learning/speaking English now for ~30y and feeling quite comfortable with it. The density of new words in a single post is just insane. Need to level up my gardening game

Es gibt auch ein paar unaufgeregte Berichte aus den eher kreativen Bereichen, wie man Nutzen jenseits der sloppy Bilder/Filme/Musik ziehen kann

Ein KI-Tutor (“hilf mir binomische Formeln zu verstehen”) ist eine ganz andere Hausnummer, ist aber Arbeit und keine Wunderlösung.

Aber das eine ist soviel günstiger als das andere

Working on the important stuff outside the hype narrative seems to be a nice spot. I would also try to do that.
How you make money with any of the (business)models is an open question, but probably (for now) not as important as many think. DS playing obviously a long term game.

But I'm concerned to see sloppy info graphics for the foreseeable future, as this seems to be the next hype topic on AI-twitter/linkedin. The various failure modes of the model are interesting, it's surprisingly good at some points and then fails totally at other stuff. bsky.app/profile/mart...
Nano banana pro also nicely puts it directly onto the music sheet, it looks really good, but it’s not the chords it suggests above 🤨

It's much, much better if you start with an image and let it do modifications.

Also the training data bootstrapping sounds very interesting. Quite some nuggets in the report!

The water thing is mostly overblown andymasley.substack.com/p/the-ai-wat...

The electricity and CO2 impact is real and deserves serious attention, which is why it's annoying that the water issue steals so much of that attention
The AI water issue is fake

Yeah in a 1:1 qwen is typically stronger. Granite is best for “non-chinese, permissive license” environments
